TYGRIS Zinc Galv Spray Heavy Duty - R239

YGRIS Heavy Duty Zinc Galv Spray provides active metal protection against corrosion and an excellent primer coat. The sacrificial properties of zinc contribute to an effective defence against oxidisation should the coating become damaged. Zinc Galv Spray can be used both on bare metal and previously galvanised surfaces, and is suitable for spraying onto acrylic or cellulose paints (not alkyd). It may be over-coated with acrylic, alkyd, PU and epoxy paints. Read our Zinc Galvanising Spray Spotlight on TYGRIS Academy.

Consult the safety data sheet prior to use - suitable Personal Protection Equipment should be worn. Remove excess rust and ensure surface to be treated is clean and dry. Shake can until agitator ball can be heard and then for a further 1-2 minutes. Hold can 25-30 cm from the surface and apply a light coat. Further coats can be added to build up the required thickness. Allow 15-30 minutes drying before over-coating. Invert can after use and depress actuator to prevent nozzle blockage. Dispose of used aerosols in line with local and national regulations.
